Important
The comprehensive review labs are related exercises, and you can start with any lab in the sequence. You must reset your lab environment before starting your first comprehensive review lab, to remove objects that were created during previous course chapters that can conflict with your lab tasks.
As the student user on the workstation machine, use the lab command to prepare your system for this exercise.
This command prepares your environment and ensures that all required resources are available.
